Outside the window, there is a rapidly receding landscape, and the mountains in the distance and the fields in the near distance are dyed with a layer of gold by the winter sun.

On this road to hometown, people's feelings are complicated, there are longing for hometown, there are concerns for relatives, there are also reviews of the past year and longing for the new year.

But most people are worried about the various expenses of going back and forth, that is, they want to spend the New Year in a beautiful way.

Like Fang Bai's family, nearly ten luxury cars drove home vigorously, and it is estimated that it is the only one in the country.

Passengers on the road, when they saw this pomp, thought it was a convoy of relatives, but they denied it when they saw that there were no wedding flowers on the front of the car.

But even if it's a kiss, it's usually just a Santana car, and it's all beautiful. In this era, it costs a few hundred dollars to temporarily rent a Santana car as a wedding car, which is not cheap, and it is also priced according to the price of the car, but the car is less in demand and the price is higher.

In a big car, Fang Bai sat in the back seat by himself, Qin Shuyu was pulled together by Fang Tingting, and sat in another car, it is estimated that there is endless words.

Fang Bai sat for a long time, and took out the year-end summaries of various companies when he had nothing to do.

The first is the report of Xinghai International Investment Company, which is all in English, which Simmons handed to him some time ago.

Microsoft stock, when I bought it last year, the average price reached $770 a share, and when I last reported, it fell to $675 at the trough and only $752 at the highest, and now it has returned to the stock price when I bought it last year, and the book value has not changed.

The company bought $200 million in Microsoft stock.

Intel INTC, when I bought it, it reached $4,000 a share (post-weighting calculation), and when I last reported, it had risen to $5,000, and when it reached $5,600 at the high, it was about $5,200 at present, and it has not changed much.

The most purchased is Cisco stock, with an average price of about $350 at the time of purchase, which has risen to about $400 at the time of the last report, and has now risen to about $590.

In the past few months, Simmons has absorbed another $50 or 60 million in investment, all of which have been smashed into Cisco stocks.

Overall, the book value of investing in three stocks has reached $1.6 billion, which is already a lot of profit, up 45% from when the position was opened.

By April and May next year, if this is still the case, on the books, Fang Bai can still earn two or three hundred million US dollars.

However, of course, he was not satisfied with this.

In the coming year, Fang Bai feels that the increase will not be too large.

It wasn't until 1995 that these three stocks skyrocketed.

This part of the money, Fang Bai plans to put overseas.

He recalled the list of rich people killing pigs, and was slightly worried.

In fact, in the 10 years from 1999 to 2008, a total of 1,330 domestic rich people were on a certain Hu Baifu list, although the vast majority of entrepreneurs on the list are still leading the development of enterprises, but there are also 49 people who have "changed", accounting for very few people, most of them are suspected of economic crimes, manipulation of securities transactions, misappropriation of funds, conspiracy to defraud, etc.

Xinghai Group is currently a technology company, and Fang Bai is a little worried.

As long as he gets some more high-tech that benefits the country and the people and breaks the monopoly of foreign technology, even if he really makes a mistake, the relevant departments will turn a blind eye.

Pulling the curtains of the car window, the warm winter sun shone on him and felt warm, and the car was brighter, like a beam of light shining in the dark, dispelling the gloom in his heart.

In an instant, the corners of Fang Bai's mouth were slightly raised, his eyebrows were stretched, and his smile was like a clear spring stream.

"Hey, I'm thinking too much."

With a faint smile, he put down the report of the investment company and picked up the report of Hualian Supermarket handed to him by his roommate.

At the beginning of the last semester, a total of 50 Hualian supermarkets were open and several were under construction.

After several months of rapid development, it now has 80 Hualian supermarkets in normal operation, with a daily turnover of more than 500,000 yuan.

Last year, Hualian Supermarket had a total turnover of about 100 million yuan, a gross profit of about 35 million yuan, and an after-tax profit of 30 million yuan.

At present, Fang Bai has not touched this money and has been used for development.

Before last year, they took one million yuan to distribute dividends, and the average student in their class received 4,800 yuan after tax.

This year, in order to let everyone have a good year, Hualian Supermarket also has a lot of liquidity, and it is not needed so much, Fang Bai took 5 million yuan out to share dividends, and also hoped that they could improve their family life, and each student received 24,000 yuan per capita after tax, and he was very rich.

What makes the students of the third class of mechanical machinery even happier is that the shares in their hands are becoming more and more valuable.

According to the current valuation, each person's 0.2% stake in hand is worth about 200,000 yuan.

Fang Bai will prepare for the listing of Hualian Supermarket this year, and when the time comes, the shares in their hands will be more valuable, and when the number of supermarkets reaches more than 100, Fang Bai will reward shares again according to the original plan, and reward shares again before the listing.

In the end, with the addition of 0.2% of the previous reward, each student will receive a total of 0.6% of the shares.

There are 59 people in the class, and because of the Hualian supermarket established by Fang Bai, their lives and families have changed.

At this time, Fang Bai's roommate Cui Xiaoqiang and his girlfriend Qi Ran were sitting on the train back to their hometown.

The two had a holiday early, but Cui Xiaoqiang was delayed in some things, and he went home late, so Qi Ran accompanied him.

Cui Xiaoqiang's family is in a remote mountain village in Longlin County, Guizhou Province, while Qi Ran's family is in the county seat of Shilin County, Chuncheng, Yunnan Province.

The train from Chuncheng to Shencheng passed through Weishe Station, and Cui Xiaoqiang met Qi Ran on the train, and was later chased by Qi Ran.

The two have confirmed that the relationship between the couple has been for more than half a year, and Qi Ran, who went to college in finance and economics, looks well-behaved and has a little beauty, but he is desperate for Cui Xiaoqiang, who is only 161 cm tall and has a mediocre appearance.

Of course, at the beginning, I mainly fancied Cui Xiaoqiang's future development, and he was honest with other people.

At the beginning, Qi Ran's roommate didn't understand why she chose Cui Xiaoqiang, with her conditions, there were many boys chasing her at the University of Finance and Economics.

After they learned more about Cui Xiaoqiang, especially in recent months, Hualian Supermarket has developed rapidly, coupled with the roommate relationship with Fang Bai, they have to admire Qi Ran's vision is really good.

After this year's holiday, before going home, Cui Xiaoqiang took Qi Ran to visit his renovated new house, which surprised Qi Ran.

Before coming, Cui Xiaoqiang said that he would give her a big surprise, but he didn't expect it to be a house!

Oh my God, what a surprise!

Cui Xiaoqiang looked at Qi Ran's dumbfounded appearance, and said to Qi Ran: "Look, how is this house decorated?" ”

Qi Ran looked around the house, exquisitely decorated, fully furnished, and her eyes flashed with excitement, she sighed: "It's so beautiful, Xiaoqiang, is this really your house?" ”

"Of course it's mine, my name is on the title deed." Cui Xiaoqiang smiled proudly.

"I can't believe it, it must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"This house cost more than 100,000 yuan, and I took it in full, and it cost a lot of money to decorate it."

"Oh my God, it's very well decorated, it's big." Qi Ran knew that the house in Shencheng was expensive, but he could afford to buy it in full, how luxurious it was.

Next, Cui Xiaoqiang took her on a tour.

The house is two bedrooms, two living rooms and one bathroom, and the area of the house certificate is close to 70 square meters.

Most of the units in these years were fifty or sixty square meters, and the family population was large, so it was impossible for one person to share one house.

The balcony of the living room has floor-to-ceiling large glass, which has good lighting and seems to be transparent. The kitchen also has full cabinets and a smoker, which has been remodeled to open directly to the dining room. The dining room has a solid wood dining table surrounded by four chairs.

Bedrooms are custom-made wardrobes and desks, as well as large bay windows.

Qi Ran had never seen a house with such a decoration, so he was completely shocked.

"Actually, the house is okay, if there are many families, it will definitely not be enough to live. I bought a washing machine and a fan, kitchenware and a TV and air conditioner yet. When the next semester comes, we'll see if there's anything we need, and we'll add more. Cui Xiaoqiang is very satisfied with the decoration, in fact, he doesn't know how to decorate.

He and his roommate saw Fang Bai's renovated houses, which opened their eyes to the fact that the house could also be decorated like this.

After the visit, the two sat on the new sofa, Cui Xiaoqiang held her hand, and said: "We are both juniors, and we will be seniors in one semester.

The matter of the house should have been told to you earlier, but it involves some situations of our boss, which should not be exposed.

Some time ago, I asked our boss, and he said that it didn't matter, he didn't care about the speculation of the warrants back then, and said that the local government knew about it.

Back then, a few people in our dormitory followed the boss to speculate on the warrants, and several of us took a lot of money and invested in the house.

Therefore, when we get married in the future, we don't have to worry about the house at all. ”

The corners of Qi Ran's lips bloomed, revealing an understanding smile: "Well, it's okay, Fang Bai is really good to you." I've heard of call warrants, but since you mentioned it to me, I won't tell anyone else, ordinary people don't know much about this kind of thing, Fang Bai chose not to expose it at the beginning, so naturally he had his reasons. ”

Cui Xiaoqiang nodded, feeling pleased.

At the beginning, the boss didn't choose not to be exposed, of course, he made too much.

However, he wouldn't tell Qi Ran about these things, it wasn't because he was afraid that Qi Ran would tell others, but because he understood Fang Bai's kindness to him.

"Yes, the boss is very good to us, and we can't pay off the favors we owe for a lifetime. A few years ago, he probably asked us about it, and said that if you are willing to work in Xinghai Group, it is no problem, but the specific position or something depends on your ability. ”

"Ah, I can also go to work in Xinghai Group?" Qi Ran was surprised.

"Of course, the partners of several of our roommates can go, as well as our whole class, if you want. It's just that now there is an Hualian supermarket, everyone is not short of money, and there may be many people who are further studying, I plan to continue to study for a doctorate, and if the boss needs it, I will enter his company after graduation. If you plan to continue your studies for a Ph.D., or go out and work directly, you don't have to worry about family expenses.

Last year, I took a few thousand yuan in dividends, and this year I got 24,000, I have plenty of funds in hand, Hualian Supermarket is developing rapidly, and I don't worry about small money at all. ”

Qi Ran thought about it for a while, she had the idea of going to graduate school, and said in surprise: "Well, then I'll accompany you to graduate school, I didn't expect you to get so much dividends a year, ordinary families have worked hard to save money for a lifetime, maybe they can't save 10,000 yuan." ”

Her parents are teachers, and the family's financial situation is average.

Now the cost of sending students to graduate school is not high, but if there is financial support, it will definitely be nourishing.

Cui Xiaoqiang sighed with emotion: "Yes, so, the kindness we owe to the boss is too great, and we can't pay it off in our lifetime."

If it weren't for him, I would still be a poor student, nibbling on steamed buns every day.

I remember that at the beginning of my freshman year, the eldest still lived in the dormitory for a while, and he often bought a lot of meat buns in the morning, in fact, he knew that we couldn't eat enough. But for fear of hurting our self-esteem, they didn't give us money directly.

In the past two years, I have dealt with the work of Hualian Supermarket, and I have more social contacts, and I finally understand the practice of the boss back then. ”

Qi Ran leaned his head on Cui Xiaoqiang's shoulder, listened quietly, and sighed: "It's very powerful, no wonder people's business is so big, many students in our school worship him." ”

"This house, after we graduate and get married, we will register your name. At the moment, the house has not been licensed, I asked the boss, and he said that this is normal. ”

When Qi Ran heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he felt that his heart was very sweet, immersed in the joy of love.

She was also worried, Cui Xiaoqiang changed her mind.

But if her name is added to the house, it must be truly in love with her.

For the first time, she was moved by Cui Xiaoqiang's words, glanced at his side face, hesitated, or leaned over and kissed his face, and then shyly avoided his gaze.

For a long time, the relationship between the two has been limited to holding hands and hugging, and there are even fewer bars, mainly because Cui Xiaoqiang is too timid.

If he had taken the initiative, she would have been willing.

Cui Xiaoqiang was also overjoyed by her actions, he is not stupid now, anyway, there are only two of them in the room.

took advantage of the opportunity to hold her delicate face.

The two of them breathed together, and they could both feel each other's wheezing suddenly become heavier.

When the cold lips suddenly touched her lips, the world swirled in that moment, and she closed her eyes with a green face, but she kept trembling.

I don't know how long it took, the relationship between the two deepened a lot, and they were only one step away.

Cui Xiaoqiang smiled, feeling satisfied, after tidying up his clothes, he seriously said to Qi Ran lying on his lap: "This year's New Year, I plan to meet your parents, and when I graduate, I will come to the door to propose marriage, and we will decide the marriage." ”

"Well, listen to you."

The corners of Qi Ran's mouth rose slightly, with a shy smile, as if he was silently enjoying this sudden happiness.

Cui Xiaoqiang was even happier when he saw that Qi Ran agreed without much hesitation.

I heard the boss say that if a couple has been dating together for a long time, when one party proposes to meet the other party's parents and the other party avoids it, it is very likely that they either really want to be together, or they are not responsible, or they are afraid of spending money.

Cui Xiaoqiang felt that the boss was reasonable.

In the next few days, the two lived in a new house and their relationship deepened.

If you weren't going to go home, you would be afraid that Qi Ran's movement would be inconvenient, and it would be estimated that you would have to break through the last step.

On the day of the train's departure, the two got on the train together and left Shencheng.

Cui Xiaoqiang is not short of money, he bought a hard sleeper ticket this time, but he didn't want to squeeze the hard seat together.

This year, sleeper tickets are still very easy to buy, mainly expensive, most students are reluctant to buy, after all, there is no discount for buying sleeper tickets.

On the contrary, it is a hard seat, and students can get a 5% discount if they buy it.

There were six passengers in a small carriage, and the other four passengers looked at the couple Cui Xiaoqiang and Qi Ran, a little surprised.

Cui Xiaoqiang looks ordinary, and the girl is very beautiful, how can he take a fancy to him?

After sitting in the car for a long time, chatting and chatting, they learned that Cui Xiaojing and Qi Ran were college students.

As for more, I didn't know much, Cui Xiaoqiang looked honest, but he was not stupid, he said everything in front of strangers. (End of chapter)
